A story about a murderous man
John Gacy was his well known name
And serial killings gave him his ill fame
Gacy spread terror in Chicago town,
And became known as the Killer Clown
Perverted sex was his evil plan
He sent many men to the Promised Land..

Gacy's Bones,
Dug 'em in the basement
Gacy's Bones,
By the river's reeds
Gacy's Bones,
Bodies of his victims
John Wayne Gacy done
The devil's deeds..

Born St. Patrick's day in "42"
Sentenced to ten years for a rape, he would do
In just eighteen months, he was freed, paroled..
Settled down, got married, seemingly controlled..
Neighbors, who would visit complained of a smell
Turned out later, to be..a smell from hell
Broke up with his wife..to him, men were dear
He would pick 'em up, and they'd disappear..

Gacy's Bones,
Found 'em in the basement
Gacy's Bones,
By the river's reeds
Gacy's Bones,
Bodies of his victims
John Wayne Gacy done
The devil's deeds..

Owned a construction firm he called PDM
Hired young male workers, then assaulted them
Played out perversions on a chosen few
Years rolled by till anybody knew
They'd come up missin' when the day was done,
Murdered by Gacy, each, one by one..
At a party, once had his fortune told,
Fortune teller got ill, called him strange and cold..

Gacy's Bones,
Buried in the basement
Gacy's Bones,
By the river's reeds
Gacy's Bones,
Bodies of his victims
John Wayne Gacy done
The devil's deeds..

Fin'lly got Gacy with good crime detect,
Judged him to die by lethal inject..
Thirty-two bodies..the final toll
He paid in hell for his evil soul...

Gacy's Bones,
Dug up in the basement
Gacy's Bones,
By the river's reeds
Gacy's Bones,
Bodies of his victims
John Wayne Gacy done
The devil's deeds..

John Wayne Gacy done
The devil's deeds..
